As I mentioned in the post below, my back is killing me after my mostly successful attempt at creeping up on a 400lb squat (375lbs) this past Saturday. Well I didn’t have any nifty ice packs anywhere, and didn’t want the condensation from a regular bag of ice bleeding out onto my desk chair, couch, etc. To boot, I had things to do and couldn’t just sit in one spot for an extended period of time.

Now, if that last picture gave you a headache (pretty hard to get a decent picture of one’s own back), then you could probably use a variant of this solution, but it’d probably require some duct tape thereby making it a bit less elegant. Depending on your cold tolerance you might want to decide if you want the mitt against your skin, or between your underwear and shorts/pantaloons/ass-less leather chaps (hey, I promise not to judge your lifestyle as long as you don’t make jokes about my choice in pain relief treatments).
